Thinking on the big rifles, was in Green Top in Richmond and overheard two guys discussing a 375. Went over and one guy was a marine who had served with a friend of mine before going to Africa and becoming a PH. He said the 375 and larger were good but it is all in how you stand and hold them.
I asked him about that movie shot where the guy stands and shoots the charging lion. He said that won't happen, only in the movies. He said unless you aim low, the lion will run under the shot and you may only wound him in the back if you're lucky. He said the experienced shooter will drop to one knee and kill him coming straight on.
So, Mills when you get that 375, make sure you drop to one knee before shooting that lion.
